I'm newish to NoiseBridge, but have a good sense of the place now and how it works. <strike>I'm not a member yet, but I definitely plan to start the process once, um, I'm less broke.</strike> I'm now a starving hacker member, yay!

Here's my current list of Noisebridge interests.

I'm working on hacking up 5-10 of the donated Walkmen so that they can be controlled via circuitry. So far I have 5 of them that I can play/stop and control speed via pots and switches on a beardboard. I recently got an Arduino, so my next steps will be to wire it to control all five Walkmen and eliminate the beadboard/pots/switches in favor of Ardunio sketches. I'm learning a lot about circuitry (and now Arduinos) for this project, so its mostly about the learning along the way not really the final product.

If you face down the aisle between the member shelves with your back to the Mission St windows, then my shelf is located on the thirdish rack of shelves on your right around eye level. It contains all my NB project stuff in a white, translucent plastic bin with greyish(?) opaque, flappy lid. My shelf, bin, and contents are all labelled with my name. If anyone needs to docratically relocate my shelf/bin for any reason, please update this section with its new home.

My Noisebridge Projects

Cassette Tape Mashup Box

I'm working on hacking up 5-10 of the donated Walkmen so that they can be controlled via circuitry. So far I have 5 of them that I can play/stop and control speed via pots and switches on a beardboard. I recently got an Arduino, so my next steps will be to wire it to control all five Walkmen and eliminate the beadboard/pots/switches in favor of Ardunio sketches. I'm learning a lot about circuitry (and now Arduinos) for this project, so its mostly about the learning along the way not really the final product.

My Member Shelf

If you face down the aisle between the member shelves with your back to the Mission St windows, then my shelf is located on the thirdish rack of shelves on your right around eye level. It contains all my NB project stuff in a white, translucent plastic bin with greyish(?) opaque, flappy lid. My shelf, bin, and contents are all labelled with my name. If anyone needs to docratically relocate my shelf/bin for any reason, please update this section with its new home.
